DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The present invention will now be described with some preferred embodiments thereof and by referring to the accompanying drawings. For the purpose of easy to understand, elements that are the same in the preferred embodiments are denoted by the same reference numerals.

Please refer to FIGS. 1 to 3. A pull-out aiding device 100 according to a first preferred embodiment of the present invention is configured for mounting on an object, which includes a first partitioning wall 210 or/and a second partitioning wall 220 located opposite to each other. In the object, a corresponding apparatus 300, such as a hard disk drive, a memory, a printed circuit board (PCB), a case, a block or a display card, can be mounted. The object also includes a top wall and a bottom wall (not shown), which are connected to the first and the second partitioning wall 210, 220. That is, the first partitioning wall 210, the second partitioning wall 220, the top wall and the bottom wall together define a receiving space, in which the corresponding apparatus 300 is received, and an opening communicating with the receiving space. A circuit board 400 is arranged in the receiving space and has a connection port 410 provided thereon for connecting to a corresponding connection jack (not shown) on the corresponding apparatus 300, such as a hard disk.

The object can be, for example, a chassis, a drawer, a hole, a recess, a cover or a wall panel.

The pull-out aiding device 100 includes a pulling member 110 and a handle member 120. The pulling member 110 is movably coupled with the first partitioning wall 210, and includes a first pivot section 111 (see FIG. 4) and an abutting section 112, which are located at two opposite ends of the pulling member 110. The abutting section 112 is abutted against the corresponding apparatus 300 for pushing the latter forward. The handle member 120 includes a pressing section 121, a second pivot section 122 and an operating section 123. The second pivot section 122 is located adjacent to the pressing section 121 and pivotally connected to the first pivot section 111, such that the handle member 120 is turnable about the second pivot section 122 to move between a closed position, as shown in FIG. 1, and a pulled-out position, as shown in FIG. 2. The pressing section 121 has a closing edge 121A and a pulling-out edge 121B. As shown in FIG. 3, a vertical distance D1 between the pulling-out edge 121B and the second pivot section 122 is larger than a vertical distance D2 between the closing edge 121A and the second pivot section 122. However, it is not necessary for the vertical distance D to be larger than the vertical distance D2. In other possible arrangements, the vertical distance D1 between the pulling-out edge 121B and the second pivot section 122 can be equal to or smaller than the vertical distance D2 between the closing edge 121A and the second pivot section 122.

When the handle member 120 is in the closed position, the closing edge 121A is in contact with or located adjacent to the first partitioning wall 210. When the handle member 120 is in the pulled-out position, the pulling-out edge 121B is in contact with or located adjacent to the first partitioning wall 210 and the abutting section 112 is moved forward relative to the first partitioning wall 210 by a pulling distance, which has relation to the vertical distance D1 between the pulling-out edge 121B and the second pivot section 122 and the vertical distance D2 between the closing edge 121A and the second pivot section 122. The pulling distance can be in the range of, for example, 0.5 mm to 500 mm.

In the first preferred embodiment, when the handle member 120 is in the closed position, it is located perpendicular or non-parallel to the first partitioning wall 210. On the other hand, when the handle member 120 is in the pulled-out position, it is located in parallel or non-perpendicular to the first partitioning wall 210.

As can be seen in FIGS. 1 and 2, the abutting section 112 is in the form of an L-shaped arm for abutting against, for example, a rear side of the corresponding apparatus 300. When the pulling member 110 is moved forward, the abutting section 112 also pushes the corresponding apparatus 300 forward. However, it is understood the abutting section 112 is not necessarily limited to the L-shaped arm but can be other differently shaped structures, such as a hook, a protrusion, a recessed member, a stepped structure, a flat member, a cambered member, a curved member, a latch, a box, a case or a coupling member.

In the first preferred embodiment, the first partitioning wall 210 is provided on one side facing the second partitioning wall 220 with a guide rail unit 211, to which the pulling member 110 is movably coupled, so that the pulling member 110 can be moved relative to the first partitioning wall 210 in a direction away from the circuit board 400 and toward the opening of the object.

When the handle member 120 is operated to turn from the closed position to the pulled-out position, since the vertical distance D1 between the pulling-out edge 121B of the pressing section 121 and the second pivot section 122 is larger than the vertical distance D2 between the closing edge 121A of the pressing section 121 and the second pivot section 122, the pulling member 110 is brought by the handle member 120 to move outward relative to the first partitioning wall 210. At this point, the abutting section 112 pushes the corresponding apparatus 300 forward to thereby separate the latter from the connection port 410 and bring a front side of the corresponding apparatus 300 to extend beyond the first and the second partitioning wall 210, 220. Then, the handle member 120 can be further outward pulled by a predetermined distance for the corresponding apparatus 300 to expose more from the opening of the object and a user can conveniently remove the corresponding apparatus 300 from the object with one hand.

Please refer to FIG. 4. The first pivot section 111 and the second pivot section 122 are pivotally turnably connected to each other via a shaft 150. However, it is understood the first and the second pivot section 111, 122 can be otherwise connected together via a hinge structure or be engaged with each other via an engaging structure.

The pulling member 110 is provided with a first limiting unit 113. When the handle member 120 is located at the pulled-out position, the first limiting unit 113 interferes with a second limiting unit 212 provided on the first partitioning wall 210 to limit a maximum length by which the pulling member 110 can be pulled out beyond the first partitioning wall 210. In the first preferred embodiment, the first limiting unit 113 is an elongated hole, and the second limiting unit 212 is a protruded body adapted to be correspondingly received in the above-mentioned elongated hole. In practical implementation of the present invention, the protruded body can be a screw, a nut or a rivet locked to the first partitioning wall 210. It is understood the first limiting unit 113 and the second limiting unit 212 are not necessarily limited to the above-described structure. For example, the first limiting unit 113 can be otherwise an elongated slot, while the second limiting unit 212 can be a hooked body adapted to be correspondingly received in the elongated slot. Alternatively, the second limiting unit 212 can be an elongated hole or an elongated slot, while the first limiting unit 113 can be a protruded body or a hook adapted to be correspondingly received in the elongated hole or the elongated slot.

The pull-out aiding device 100 can further include a shock-absorbing member 140, which is disposed on one side of the handle member 120 facing toward the corresponding apparatus 300 to avoid impact of the handle member 120 on the corresponding apparatus 300. The shock-absorbing member 140 can be, for example, a piece of foam rubber, sponge or other similar soft material or elastomer.

As can be seen in FIGS. 4 and 5, the pull-out aiding device 100 can further include a releasable fastening element 130, which is movably connected to the operating section 123 of the handle member 120. The releasable fastening element 130 includes a latch 131 for engaging with a latch hole 221 provided on the second partitioning wall 220 to hold the handle member 120 to the closed position. Also, the releasable fastening element 130 can include a hand shifting member 132 that is raised from an outer surface of the releasable fastening element 130.

In the illustrated first preferred embodiment, the pulling member 110 or the handle member 120 can be made of a metal material or a plastic material. The handle member 120 is provided with a window 1201, via which an operator can see things located behind the window 1201. When the corresponding apparatus 300, such as the hard disk drive, the memory, the printed circuit board (PCB), the case, the block or the display card, has been mounted, the window 1201 is aligned with a barcode (not shown) of the corresponding apparatus 300, so that the barcode behind the window 1201 can be directly scanned through the window 1201 by the operator without the need of opening the pull-out aiding device 100. Therefore, the pull-out aiding device 100 is convenient for use. Further, when the handle member 120 has the shock-absorbing member 140 disposed at a lower side thereof, the shock-absorbing member 140 is also provided with an opening corresponding to the window 1201 to facilitate the barcode scanning.

Please refer to FIGS. 6 and 7, in which the first and second limiting units for a first variation of the pull-out aiding device 100 are shown. According to the first variation, the first limiting unit 113 includes two flanged bosses 113A, 113B, and the second limiting unit 212 includes two quick-release guide rails 212A, 212B that are associated with the two flanged bosses 113A, 113B in a one-to-one correspondence. As can be seen in FIGS. 6 and 7, the two flanged bosses 113A, 113B are movable in along the corresponding quick-release guide rails 212A, 212B.

In addition, the releasable fastening element 130 can have more than one latch 131. In the illustrated first variation of the first preferred embodiment, there are shown two latches 131. Correspondingly, the second partitioning wall 220 can be provided with more than one latch hole 221 (not shown in FIGS. 6 and 7) for the latches 131 to engage with. The releasable fastening element 130 further has two locating stoppers 134, which are adapted to abut against a front edge of the second partitioning wall 220, so that the releasable fastening element 130 and the second partitioning wall 220 are held in place relative to each other.

Please refer to FIGS. 6, 7 and 8. In the first variation of the first preferred embodiment, the flanged bosses 113A, 113B respectively have a body portion 1131 and a flange portion 1132 formed around a free end of the body portion 1131. The quick-release guide rails 212A, 212B respectively have a rail portion 2121 and a quick-release hole portion 2122 communicable with the rail portion 2121. The body portions 1131 of the flanged bosses 113A, 113B are separately movably received in the corresponding rail portions 2121. The flange portions 1132 of the flanged bosses 13A, 113B have a diameter larger than a diameter of the body portions 1131 and a width of the rail portions 2121, so that the flanged bosses 113A, 113B are limited to move only within the corresponding rail portions 2121. Also, the diameter of the flange portions 1132 is smaller than a diameter of the quick-release hole portions 2122. When the flanged bosses 113A, 113B are moved in the rail portions 2121 to positions corresponding to the quick-release hole portions 2122, the flange portions 1132 can be moved out of the quick-release hole portions 2122, allowing the pull-out aiding device 100 to be detached from the first partitioning wall 210.

Further, a distance between the two flanged bosses 113A, 113B can be larger than, smaller than or equal to a distance between the two quick-release hole portions 2122 of the two quick-release guide rails 212A, 212B. Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, the two flanged bosses 113, 113B would not simultaneously disengage from the two quick-release guide rails 212A, 212B. Preferably, on the quick-release guide rail 212B, the quick-release hole portion 2122 is arranged at a front end of the rail portion 2121, i.e. a point on the quick-release guide rail 212B that is closest to the second pivot section 122; and on the quick-release guide rail 212A, the quick-release hole portion 2122 is arranged at a point on the rail portion 2121 that is located behind the front end of the rail portion 2121 by a predetermined distance. Accordingly, when the pulling member 110 is pulled outward relative to the first partitioning wall 210, the flanged boss 113A will reach at the quick-release hole portion 2122 of the quick-release guide rail 212A first, allowing the flange portion 1132 of the flanged boss 113A to move out of the quick-release hole portion 2122 of the quick-release guide rail 212A. Thereafter, when the pulling member 110 is further pulled outward for the flanged boss 113B to reach at the quick-release hole portion 2122 of the quick-release guide rail 212B, the flange portion 1132 of the flanged boss 113B can be easily disengaged from the quick-release hole portion 2122 of the quick-release guide rail 212B, allowing the pull-out aiding device 100 to be fully detached from the first partitioning wall 210.

As can be seen in FIG. 11, the pulling member 110 can have a springy bent section 115, which is located adjacent to the first pivot section 111 and inclined toward the first partitioning wall 210 by an inclining angle from 1 to 90 degrees. The bent section 115 is provided with a male foolproof retainer 1151 for ensuring correct mounting of the corresponding apparatus 300 in the object. That is, when the corresponding apparatus 300 is correctly mounted, the abutting section 112 and the foolproof retainer 1151 are pressed against two opposite end surfaces of the corresponding apparatus 300.
